so to recap, the optimal setup from what i read is:

Front: OEM springs/FJ or 4runner, (still debating) with IMS59-50220?
Rear: GS59-637

IF that's correct, how do I order for Canada??

Better to use new springs than old OE.

You need to email in your info and what you want to order.

Finally installed!

Huge thanks to Mike for all the help with choosing the right set up for me. The customer service was great and shipping times were perfect as well. Was extremely knowledgeable and helpful with everything I needed and was even able to change my order on the fly. Can't thank you enough for helping me get my Truck looking just how I wanted it!

Thank you! Here are the best pics I could find, I have since built a spare tire carrier, the weight hasn’t changed the ride height much though. Sorry to flood the thread with my lame pics lol.

You'll have to send me an email with your order number so I can check. There are too many pending orders and people in lines all over the place, and posting ETA info here confuses the **** out of people I've found

Yeah, that setup will have you sitting much better than where you are now, super sagged out. 22.5" front and 23.5" in the rear with those parts you selected. Yeah, without the tent and gear in there you'll be sitting nice, but you can expect 1/2-3/4" squat in the rear when adding that gear for trips, etc, but you should still be no less than level front to rear with that weight.

That's a super common setup, the most common actually.
Hey!
I went ahead and ordered this via a local shop and Dobinsons Direct back in February. The 300's have been "arriving next week" per Dobinsons for 6 weeks now.

Do you have any insight into how long it will take?

You have a shop in Jacksonville that does installs too? I'd like to just come up there to discuss the options.

No, I don't have a shop here. I only sell parts now. Installs come with so many headaches

Great thread, very informative! I've been doing my research and finally ready to pull the trigger on the Dobinsons setup. Currently I have the cornfed 3/2 spacers with stock XReas and springs with 119k on them. 2006 V8 with no extra weight. Current measurements are:

LF 21 3/4"
RF 22"
LR 22 3/4"
RR 23 1/2" (full tank of gas)

Would like for it to be about this when I add the Dobinsons coils and shocks.

LF & RF 22 1/2"
LR & RR 23 1/2 - 23 3/4"

Is this where I'll be with this:
C59-314
GS59-221
C59-505
GS59-705
front and rear lean spacers

I was also considering the C59-325 for the rear, but don't want it to be too high and so much rake. Felt like the 505 may be the better choice for me.

Curious of any other thoughts or input on this setup. Thanks!

Thanks man!!

Yeah, that will be correct. The 314 coils lift 2.5" on a stock weight V8 4x4, and 22.5" is the usual height of them when settled.

The 505's should also be perfect at about 23.5" once settled.

What you listed there is pretty much exactly what you'd need. There's nothing else I'd recommend except to check your stock UCA's, sway bar links and bushings and everything in advance to see what condition they're in.

There's a lot of coils out of stock right now, but a lot are due by the end of the month. Here's the kit builder page where you can put together everything you need: Dobinsons 1" to 3.5" Lift Kit for Toyota 4Runner 4x4 2003-2009 (all options)

1 month later, what are your thoughts on the suspension now that you've had some time with it?
